Get found when couples ask Google (and ChatGPT) where to get married.

SEO and AI visibility work for wedding and event venues, built on clear facts, consistent listings, and a website search engines and AI tools can actually read.

Most couples don't browse vendor catalogs the way they used to. They Google "wedding venues near [city]" or ask an AI tool for recommendations, and they book from what comes back.

Here's what most venues don't see: when an AI recommends venues, it usually cites The Knot's or WeddingWire's page, not yours. Those platforms are worth being on, but you're paying a flat subscription to rent a slot in their catalog, in their format, next to every competitor in your market. That visibility ends the month you cancel, and most individual venues never appear in AI answers by name at all.

Meanwhile your own website, your Google profile, and your directory listings might be telling three slightly different stories about your capacity, your location, and what's included. Search engines notice that. AI tools notice it even more.

my approach

I help venues get cited directly. That means couples land on your site and call you, instead of landing in a platform's funnel.

The work:

  • Audit where you're showing up (and not showing up) in Google for the searches couples actually make

  • Check your AI visibility: how ChatGPT, Perplexity, and Google AI describe and recommend you today

  • Fix the facts. Capacity, location, pricing guidance, what's included, stated clearly and consistently everywhere

  • Optimize your Google Business Profile so it's doing the local search work it should

  • Restructure key pages with the questions couples ask, answered in a format AI tools can pull from

  • Monthly reporting on what's actually moving, in plain language

ways to work with me

I offer two packages for my clients. This is separate from my website design offerings.

SEO + AI Visibility Audit:

$600 one-time

Together, we outline a path forward that’s realistic, strategic, and tailored to your specific needs.

from $750 / mo

Ongoing optimization, content guidance, and reporting. This is the option for venues that want it handled instead of added to the to-do list. SEO takes 3 to 6 months to show movement, so this works best as a real commitment, not a trial month.

FAQ

  • They're worth having. But they rent you visibility on their platform, and AI tools cite their pages, not yours. Couples who find you there still usually Google your name before booking. Your own site and Google profile are what close that sale, and they're the only visibility you own.

  • Typically 3 to 6 months for meaningful movement. Anyone promising faster results is selling you something else.

  • Yes, if it's structurally sound. If the audit shows your site itself is holding you back, I'll tell you, and we can talk about a rebuild on a platform your team can update without a developer.

  • Wedding and event venues are my focus, but I work with other small businesses too. Let's talk about what you need.
